When and how did you, if at all, realize vinyl is better?

Of course I know my own story, so I'm more curious about yours. You can be as succinct as two bullets or write a tome.

CDs sound relatively thin, disembodied, two dimensional, compressed, congealed, thumpy, piercing, hollow, diffuse, synthetic, amusical, generic, threadbare, edgy, bass shy, peaky, ugly, phasey, irritating, detailed, unnatural, unimpressive, commercial, like papier mache, airless and dry. I think it's time for you to upgrade your system!

All we had was vinyl, reel-to-reel and FM. (And live music.) Really. I've stayed with the LP ever since - while also adding digital into the system. I simply don't see it as a "what's best?" question. I enjoy all of it.
